extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also, the marked electrical
rating of the extension cord should e at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
the extension cord should e a grounded-type 3-wire cord and the cord should e arranged
so that it will not drape over the countertop or ta letop where it can e pulled on y children
or tripped over unintentionally.
G OUNDED TYPE PLUG:This appliance has a 3-prong grounded type plug. This plug
will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If the
plug should fail to fit the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your

2. Do not allow water to stand in the Coffee Urn overnight.
3. Use filtered water instead of ordinary tap water.
4. Descale the Coffee Urn periodically. Brewing time may ecome longer as scaling uilds
up on the heater well part. Also, there may e some coffee stains and accumulation of
oils that may cause a itter taste after repeated use. To clean and descale, use a coffee
stain remover, following directions for the cleaner. Dip-It™is one such rand of this type
of special cleaning product. Note: Cleaning and descaling may e necessary as often as
once a month in areas of very hard water.
5. When descaling, follow the instructions on the package of the descaler. When descaling
has finished, empty the Coffee Urn and rinse it out several times with fresh water. Then
fill with fresh water, oil and discard the water. This should ensure that no chemical
residues are left in the Coffee Urn.
